Even 2.5 inches lower doesn't look very low.

that can't be a 2.5 inch drop...

The car doesnt even have that big of a wheel gap to begin with....

My car has a 2.5inch drop, and the wheel gap was the size of a fist.

And isnt the stock ground clearance around 5 inches? that would make the drop pretty much low rider.....

Noted, but I'm assuming VenomRush was talking about bigger diameter wheel/tire combo which would raise a car.
